Steve Rise
LCSW, BCETS, Director of New Hope Counseling
Steve Rise is licensed in the state of New York as a psychotherapist (LCSW). He owns and operates New Hope Counseling with offices in South Huntington, East Setauket and Deer Park.
Steve specializes in trauma and abuse and holds the diplomat status as a Board Certified Expert in Traumatic Stress (BCETS), and as a Board Certified Expert in Emergency Crisis Response (BCECR) with the American Association of Experts in Traumatic Stress. He has completed level II advanced training with the EMDR Institute, in addition to several other specific trainings in trauma and recovery. Specialized areas of training include: Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), addiction, depression, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, adjustment and attachment disorders, and anxiety disorders in addition to other types of emotional disturbance in the context of individual, couple and family therapy.
Steve has also developed the Core Values Model of treatment which eclectically incorporates several modes of traditional therapeutic intervention, but goes into a deeper understanding of how all prior experiences impact ones present-day feelings, thinking and behavior.
This model is proactive, instructional and provides each client with an in-depth understanding of why each person makes the choices they do, and how to correct them when they are faulty. This model also works to alleviate the chronic symptoms found in all mental and personality disorders, in addition to family and marital issues.
The staff at New Hope Counseling has an ever-growing understanding and focus on Reactive Attachment Disorder and the complicated issues, and adjustments, involved with adoption—for both the adopted child and the family of placement. The Core Values model has proven to be a very effective model of treatment within this population.
The staff also participates in several social mission endeavors each year to help alleviate the profound effects of trauma. Some projects include working with orphans of abuse and the disorders stemming from institutionalized living and poverty; and also providing training and resources to different orphanages and their staff. Steve Rise is available for seminars and guest speaking engagements on a variety of topics relating to the above issues.
